State of the Nation Cartoonist view


Cruelty is the point,
but is it evil?
We meet, my friends, in the face of evil.
In popular culture and historical
memory, of course, evil has many faces.
It is Darth Vader raising a lightsaber and
Dr. Doom glowering from behind a metal
mask. It is Charles Manson grinning his
lunatic’s grin and Adolf Hitler ranting
himself into a frothing rage.
But in everyday life, evil is seldom so
obvious or loud. In everyday life, evil is the
face of a man balancing a briefcase and a
cup of designer coffee, the face of a woman
buying groceries. It is the face of nothing Leonard Pitts
to see here and going along to get along,
the face of doing my job and just following orders. And it is, too, the
face of all of us, no one hand on the wheel, no one person account-
able, the face of everyone responsible and thus, no one to blame.
So here’s a story you might have missed last week, what with
Donald Trump trying to buy Greenland and declaring himself
“the chosen one” and all. It seems the United States will not be
giving flu vaccinations to migrant families it holds in cages. This,
despite the fact that doctors and public health officials are urging
that inoculations be made. And despite the fact that flu has contrib-
uted to the deaths of at least three children in U.S. custody since
December.
Including those who died from other or unknown causes, this
makes six children who have perished in — or right after release
from — U.S. custody. Before 2018, it had been about a decade since
a child died while being held by U.S. Customs and Border Protec-
tion.
“In general, due to the short-term nature of CBP holding and
the complexities of operating vaccination programs,” the agency
explained in a written statement, “neither CBP nor its medical
contractors administer vaccinations to those in our custody.” CBP
notes that this is nothing new; it has never offered vaccinations.
But it has never held so many people in such close and unsan-
itary conditions, either. And as for “short term:” unaccompanied
children are supposed to remain in custody no longer than 72
hours. They are routinely being held days, and even weeks, longer,
in filthy, standing-room-only cages with concrete floors.
There is something niggardly and petty about the meanness,
something entirely consonant with the values — if we may use
that word -- of an administration that argued against providing its
captives toothpaste and soap. That shrugged off an 11-year-old girl
crying for her father after he was swept up in an ICE raid in Mis-
sissippi. That was unmoved by the sight of a man and his toddler
daughter, face down in the Rio Grande. The cruelty, as they say, is
the entire point. But is it evil?
You might say it isn’t, according to what the word connotes in
popular culture and historical memory. But those connotations
paint an incomplete picture.
Consider Hannah Arendt’s famous book, “Eichmann in Jeru-
salem.” Her report on the trial of Adolf Eichmann, architect of the
Holocaust, coined a term that become controversial, if not noto-
rious: “the banality of evil.” Arendt would later explain that by it,
she meant that she found no “diabolical or demonic profundity”
